Liquid Submerged Servers

Very cool (no pun intended) demonstration of computer technology submerged in a non-conductive coolant leading to increased performance and decreased costs in conventional cooling technologies.

i looked into submerging my computer in mineral oil for cooling a few years back. Only reason I didn't was it would have been too heavy to be portable.

near silent and highly efficient.

stupid thing ate my post.

Anyways theres one uses liquid helium as the coolant 3k or -270c
D-waveâs quantum processor is fixed at the bottom of the filtering and refrigeration unit; the whole structure is immersed in liquid helium that cools it to 3 Kelvin and the refrigeration unit then cools the chip to 10 milliKelvin
